⁸ By faith ^(A)Abraham, when he was called, obeyed ^[a]by going out to a place which he was to ^(B)receive for an inheritance; and he left, not knowing where he was going. ⁹ By faith he lived as a stranger in ^(C)the land of promise, as in a foreign land, ^(D)living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, ^(E)fellow heirs of the same promise; ¹⁰ for he was looking for ^(F)the city which has ^(G)foundations, ^(H)whose architect and builder is God. ¹¹ By faith even ^(I)Sarah herself received ^[b]ability to conceive, even beyond the proper time of life, since she considered Him ^(J)faithful who had promised. ¹² Therefore even from one man, and ^(K)one who was as good as dead ^[c]at that, there were born descendants who were ^(L)just as the stars of heaven in number, and as the innumerable grains of sand along the seashore.
